I have gotten a permaban and a one week ban. The first time (the permaban), my buddy got on my computer at school. Knowing how much I love these boards, he got on and started saying all kinds of this about the band and the boards. He never used a message board before, and wasn't even aware there were mods. The second time is a little less believable, but it's true. The same guy that got me banned last time, made an account of his own. His username was Beeno or Beano, I don't remember. Anyway, he created this over a year ago and never posted on it I guess. He waited patiently for months, waiting for me to forget to log off his computer. He then decided to post from both accounts, in the same thread. I got a one week for duplicate accounts.
